Contextual Overview
30While they were on the way, a report reached David: “Absalom struck down all the king’s sons; not even one of them survived!” 30 It happened, while they were in the way, that the news came to David, saying, Avshalom has slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left. 30 And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left. 30 While they were on the way, the message came to David, "Absalom has killed all the sons of the king, and not one of them was left." 30 While they were on the way, news came to David, "Absalom has struck down all the king's sons, and not one of them is left." 30 While the king's sons were on their way, the news came to David, "Absalom has killed all of the king's sons! Not one of them is left alive!" 30 While they were still on their way, the following report reached David: "Absalom has killed all the king's sons; not one of them is left!" 30Now it happened while they were on the way [back home], that the [exaggerated] report came to David, "Absalom has killed all the king's sons, and not one of them is left." 30 Now it was while they were on the way that the report came to David, saying, "Absalom has struck and killed all the king's sons, and not one of them is left." 30 And while they were in the way, tydings came to Dauid, saying, Absalom hath slaine al the Kings sonnes, & there is not one of them left.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the king arose, and tore his garments,.... In token of extreme grief and sorrow, as Jacob did when he was shown the coat of Joseph, supposing him to have been slain, as David thought all his sons were, Genesis 37:34;
and lay on the earth; on the bare ground, another token of mourning; so Job did on hearing the death of his sons, Job 1:20;
and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent: did as David did, in imitation of him, joining with him in expressions of sorrow; these were his courtiers, ministers of state, and principal officers in his household.
